Description

AMAZING AMY: THE PERFUMER WHO WANTS TO CHANGE THE WORLD FOR THE BETTERPassionate about fragrance, Amy Christiansen, founder of Sana Jardin, created her luxury perfume house of intoxicating scents with a Master Perfumer. A social justice activist, her business model has a strong social conscience driving it - she ensures that the women harvesting the petals for her fragrances are in turn able to develop their own businesses. On this episode of Keeping Face, Amy shares the joy she experienced at being able to support female micro-entrepreneurs - but also the immense sorrow and worry when she was in Morocco when 6.8 magnitude earthquake exploded and witnessed the subsequent humanitarian disaster at first hand. One of the nicest, kindest people you’ll ever meet, this is an inspirational listen about a brand whose values have always been more than just virtue signalling. It shows that doing good and running a successful luxury brand are not mutually exclusive. For more background, these links are useful: https://sanajardin.com/?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiA5-uuBhDzARIsAAa21T8adeLWwSeEds5CXqLZuuNu2_doPMct5Odl9cSvJKOsFJtykpD3rIgaAimGEALw_wcBhttps://wwd.com/business-news/financial/clean-fragrance-perfume-sana-jardin-raises-2-million-us-market-1235741004/https://perfumesociety.org/discover-the-sustainable-future-of-fragrance-with-sana-jardins-amy-christiansen/Please follow or subscribe to Keeping Face wherever you’re listening and if you enjoy it, please spread the word!

Forever fascinated by what motivates, shapes and guides the talented, hard-working and driven individuals behind some of our favourite beauty brands, Keeping Face is about the weak spot, the scary moment, the part of the story in each founder’s narrative, where things looked like they might go wrong - badly wrong. How did they get around these moments? How did they turn weakness into opportunity? Did they feel vulnerable? Was it hard to rally and rebound? Who was there to support them through this? What was helpful? As they tell us about that difficult time, Keeping Face will leave the listener feeling inspired, informed and entertained, as we learn how they got around these moments, and learnt from their mistakes or whatever disasters life had thrown at them.At a time when the world is experiencing huge disruption, this endearing and relatable series shows us how fallible we all are as humans, but also how indestructible, resilient and brave we can be too.
